Fun Filled Weekend!!

Well our weekend started out by picking up Molly and going to the Santa Fe Cattle Company for dinner. Scott ordered us cheese sticks to start off with but Molly and I said they were more like cheese logs when they brought them out as we had never seen cheese sticks that big before. Molly had a steak, I had steak tips and Scott had a burger and it was all very good and we all agreed that we would go back. After dinner we headed to Auburn University for the pumpkin carve as we try to make it every year and it is awesome. The pumpkin carve is an event held every year at Auburn where students carve pumpkins and then they are judged in several categories and I am always amazed to see what the student's come up with....they are very creative as you can see from the pictures.

Speaking of pictures we went to get our camera out of the car to take pics of the pumpkins and found that the LCD screen was broke and since this camera doesn't have a view finder then we were taking pictures hoping that we would get a couple of good ones. We haven't had this camera for very long and loved it but now we are on the hunt for a new one...I will keep you posted on when we find something. Oh well...back to our weekend. Saturday morning we got up very early to head to Auburn to pick out our tailgating spot. Once we found our spot we unloaded everything and got out the TV and played some games and just had a good time. We grilled fajitas for lunch and had sausage balls and my homemade red pepper dip...it was all very good. About 1 1/2 hours before the game we started to take everything down and head toward to the stadium. Before we went into the stadium we went through the bookstore to see if they had anything new which they did but we didn't buy anything and then it was time to head to our seats. The game was very good and we beat Ole Miss and it was also very cold so Molly and I were glad to get back to the van to head home. On Sunday we decided to catch up on some movies and just had a day around the house and it was so nice to do so. Well nothing really planed for the week ahead except for getting ready for the game on Saturday and I will let you know how that goes.

Okay so it has been a while....

Well so much for getting my blog updated once a week...ha ha!! Let's see what has happened since the last update???? We had a yard sale at Mom's and it turned out pretty well but it was well worth it since it gave us an opportunity to clean out a bunch of stuff and get rid of it. Anything that didn't sell we sent to a charity that helps women when they get out of prison. Scott's birthday was also that weekend so we went and looked at TVs since we made a little extra money from the yard sale but didn't find anything we wanted to get that day. We then went out to lunch and took Scott to play miniature golf and had a blast!! Dad and Scott tied for first, I came in second and Molly and Mom tied for third. We got back to Mom's and had cake and Scott opened his presents. The following weekend Mom came to my house and we went to the syrup soppin with Scott's Mom and his brother. We got there really early and had breakfast (the fried pies are to die for) and then did a little shopping and then ended our time at the soppin with a little music. Scott's Mom's birthday was that weekend so we took her out to lunch and she seemed to enjoy it. Oh but let me back up a little.....back to Friday night before the syrup soppin!! Once I got home from work Mom, Scott and I ate dinner and then headed to Columbus to look at TVs again and this time we bit the bullet and bought one!! When the adventure of TV shopping first began several weeks ago we thought about getting a 32" TV for our bedroom but after seeing Mom's we decided to go with at 37" but once we got to the store and looked at the 42" then we said what the heck and bought it!!!!!!!!!! We have already watched several movies and Scott got to watch the AU/LSU game Saturday night and needless to say we don't regret going with the 42". Well that is about it and maybe I can remember to post more often. Until then....

Time to catch up.

Well it has been a few weeks since I last posted and not a lot has been going on so I will give a quick recap. We have had a couple of Auburn games that we have gone to...one turned out not so great as we lost and the other one was better since we won. We have also been able to drag out the tent that I bought last year but couldn't use because we didn't have tickets and do some real tailgating! On the 22nd of September for the New Mexico State game Scott and I got to our spot early and setup the tent, chairs, grill and this time we took a TV which was great. We didn't have Molly and so it was just Scott and I for the first 5 hours or so but then we had a few friends to show up an hour or so before the game started. As to what else has been going on, the ramp at Scott's mom's is finished without further incident and we have been getting quite a bit of yard work done as well...see I told you it wasn't all that exciting! We don't have a lot planned this week except for another home game on Saturday and we still aren't sure who will be going with us but I am sure we will have a great time no matter what. Well that is about it....until next time.
